3DS

Before Nintendo’s E3 2012 media briefing kicked off, a rumor surfaced from Nikkei suggesting that a new 3DS model with a bigger screen would be introduced. Obviously that didn’t happen, but quite a few gaming enthusiasts believe it’s inevitable.

However, when Shigeru Miyamoto was presented with Nikkei’s “3DS XL” rumor, he hinted that a makeover may not be in the cards. That’s because Miyamoto is “satisfied with the 3DS hardware as it is.” Instead, it seems as though Nintendo will be shifting its attention to the handheld’s successor.

Miyamoto told IGN:

“I really feel like I’m satisfied with the 3DS hardware as it is. I feel like it’s the best for this generation. What we’re thinking about right now is probably going to be for a future generation of handheld.”

As much as we love Ubisoft, some of their decisions have been baffling. Case in point: Rayman Origins 3DS.

The game was pushed back once again in North America last week, but not to improve its quality. Ubisoft was simply waiting for the right time to launch the title so that it could promote another upcoming product, Rayman Legends.

Rayman Origins’s delay only applies to the US. European consumers can actually run out and purchase the game right now.

The situation doesn’t make much sense, but it is what it is.

You know what’s strange? Despite the fact that Animal Crossing 3DS was given a Fall 2012 release for Japan just a couple of months ago, it didn’t make an appearance at E3 2012.

Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime didn’t have much to say about Animal Crossing at the expo last week, only confirming that it’s still in the works. Fils-Aime told Kotaku, “Animal Crossing is a game that is in development.”

Perhaps Animal Crossing 3DS won’t launch in North America until early 2013?
